Root Law Group

When dealing with anything immigration related, I need an attorney who will provide concise information explaining every option in a direct manner with professionalism and care. James Root and his staff provided that for me. Each person I spoke with was friendly, always tried to provide me with the best solution, and followed up with any updates they had. I was guided through each step, and they were always responsive to my questions.
While retaining James Root’s services, I had complete piece of mind that my case/​application would be thoroughly taken care of. It’s people like him and staff members Keli, Erica, Grabiela, Karla, and Alejandro amongst others, who make make drastic changes for the good in peoples’ lives. You want them on your side.

I never met more caring immigration attorney like James Root, who has been taking care of my immigration cases for the past 6 years. He is a very professional & friendly guy. He not only listens your concerns but actually he goes out off his way to find a solution for them. His staff is very caring and responsive to your inquiries.
I highly reccomend him & his services.

Finally I have a time to write review about this company. I used their service and it was wasted my time and money. I had sign contract for $ 5500. I paid deposit $ 2500 and rest monthly payments. So. I had a lawyer there. Don’t remember her name now. (she was his wife). It was five years ago. So they had my immigration case. I can’t say that they was doing for my case anything. they just made view that they were working on that. they always changed my date of hearings on the court and charged me extra $ 500 for that every time when they was there just for changing date even not for my case. after two years when I paid out amount of my contract with them they just stopped answer on my calls. I tried to rich them like a month. and finally did it .what my surprise was when they told me that my lawyer was quit three months ago and it was during the time when I really needed their help with close my case! Because of them I lost few years with my legalization in USA. After the while I had a call from them that I didn’t pay something in my balance. (they usually charged me automatically from my card). They asked my card again. I gave them and they charged extra ($ 350 or $ 500) .don’t remember now for sure. it wasn’t already matter because I found nice notary who helped me with everything and it cost me five times less then with root law group. So I just didn’t want any business with them anymore. What was my surprise few days ago… it is five years after my contract with them!!! Some one was TEXTED me on my phone! Even not call. and said I have some balance to pay??? What? $ 6500-​$ 7000 is not enough for nothing??? People PLEASE PLEASE don’t go there. You will loose your time and money. Check all filter reviews for them! It is under regular reviews. They filter them specially! I’m sure mine will filter tomorrow too! But maybe someone will find it anyway! Good luck everyone!

My business hired a programmer and needed to file for H1B visa. We hired Root Law Group to help us with this process. They were very professional and guided us through the process. We got lucky because our programmer was chosen by the H1B lottery and was approved for visa. I would definitely recommend working with them.

Horrible !!! Never going to that place !! They took $ 150.00 dollars for consultation and I didn’t hear anything from lawyer ! I got information from the paralegal which she downloaded from computer ! The attorney didn’t even come to the phone to speak with me and I left many messages and no one called me back. On their website it says consultation is free but hey charged me $ 150 for it. Very unprofessional, avoid this place! The paralegal thinks she’s the lawyer there. Which is ridiculous.

WARNING!!!
If you are looking for an immigration attorney please look elsewhere. This law firm is only after your money and do not even care about your case. There are thousands of other immigration attorneys that sincerely care about your case. You only see Mr. James once and after you hired them, they send you over to their so call experienced paralegals. I hired Mr. James for my husband case and it was one of the biggest mistake I’ve ever made. Thanks to him, my husband was stuck in his country waiting to submit a paper work that Mr. James said we did not need. They had made several mistakes along with his «experienced» paralegal, David. To begin, they filled the I 601 form wrong, along with the ds260. David then submitted the Affidavit of support (6) times. Yes SIX times!!! I also let him know that his birth certificate was not translated and it needed to be translated. Well Mr. James just handed me a form for me to do it instead. Really!!! We spend over 5k and they cant even translate the birth certificate??? So what is the point of having an attorney?
After our case got held back for 7 months because they keep filling the affidavit of support wrong, I went into the office and spoke with Mr. James to let him know what was going on. He acknowledge that his law firm had made mistakes and he promised someone will contact me that same day to fill another affidavit of support. Well a couple days went by, a week and finally after the second week I got a call from one of his paralegals. However at the point I had filled the affidavit myself (which got approved at the first try). we then were called into the office so that Mr James can prepare us for our interview. Well he only gave me some documents and when I asked him if the conformation of the ds260 was needed, he stated no. Which in reality we did and that was the reason why My husband was stranded in his country for 2 weeks.
All in all this was a horrible experienced and I will never refer them to anyone.

I am a business owner and have worked exclusively with Root Law Group for all my company’s needs for the past 5 years, including three H1B working visas, multiple business visas and adjustment of status from working visas to permanent residency. Every single case was handled professionally, in a timely manner, and most importantly every single one was approved. Mr Root is an outstanding immigration attorney who knows every aspect of the trade and will find a way to deliver the desired result. If you are looking for a reliable, professional immigration attorney, look no further!

I had a great experience with this Law Group. I had a lot of lawyers, who wouldn’t take my case or give me very high pricing. With Root Law Group I got what I needed for decent price.
If you looking for an Immigration Lawyer, I’d recommend them.

These guys are lifesavers — we had some last minute legal papers to deal with and they handled everything with the utmost professionalism and speed. Highly recommended!!!

I’m very satisfied with the service provided by Root Low Groop. The team is very professional. They did there job even better and faster than I had expected. 100% recommend!

Earlier in 2013, I met with Mr. James Root for an initial consultation and discussed my current status & potential options that we could pursue.
I worked with Root Law Group (Mr. Robert Blanco) throughout Q4 2013 and early 2014 for my work visa (change of status) application. This was not a straight forward case. Mr. Root and his team kept me updated at every step during the process and made the process less and less stressful. While making sure that it was submitted on-​time, they also asked for more evidence and supporting documents for the success of this case.
I definitely recommend Mr. Root’s firm for all immigration related issues.

Worst experience ever!!! I used rootlaw after starting my immigration with another attorney. Initially you get mr roots attention UNTIL you sign with them and then I dealt with paralegals and there accounts dept for 2 yrs. Mr root is absent. The only calls I got were about payment and when I asked for my package of paperwork they kept me in their boardroom for an hour and refused to give me anything til I signed paper work committing me to another $ 1100 in fees. Astounding!!! Theres a constant change of staff so you never built a relationship with any one attorney, documents were submitted late to the point my case was in jeopardy. I took on new representation to salvage my case. Horrible attorneys. Never again

Root Law Group sucks, After the initial consultation with Root esq
when he sells you the service. he will never answer your calls or emails.
He assigns the case to one of his many paralegals and you are at their mercy.
After he has got your money you will never speak to him again.
Do not use this guy

Went to them for immigration help, they filled out the paperwork, sent a staff attorney to the interview — but he did nothing while he was there — now that the two duties in the contract have been fulfilled — my case is on hold and Root and his other attorney will not return my phone calls. I need copies of my paperwork from them. Would have considered using them for the rest of the process but they are GONE. I expect a more professional effort from an attorney who has received thousands of dollars in fees. Find another shop.
